Hi,
I have a question... Anyone have an idea on how to synchronize an Apache
password file with a SQL table?
Here is the situation..
I have a MS SQL table that has a bunch of usernames and passwords, I also
have those usernames in an apache password file. I'd like to automake the
insertion of a new user. What I was thinking is sendig a system() call to
insert the apache username and DBI to insert the same stiff into my
table. And if it's not asking too much, have it web based..
Problems:
The script will run under the apache PID, thus nobody on my Linux
box.. Another problem is connecting to MS SQL form unix... I have an NT
machine available and running activeperl but then again how do I add my
user to apache?
Some of the solutions I can come up with:
Can I add the user via DBI under my NT machine then with LWP connect to the
unix and then add the apache user? Can LWP connect with encryption? The
only port open on the linux machine is 22, and of course, 80...
Has ony one done such a thing and would care to enlighten my dreary existence?
Many thanks in advance!
Gonz
